FAQs
How do I determine the correct size?
Red Wing recommends staying true to your regular shoe size for this model. However, it is always best to try them on if possible, or consult a sizing guide if purchasing online.
Do these boots require a break-in period?
Yes, like most high-quality leather boots, these will require a break-in period. Wear them for increasingly longer durations until they conform to your foot's shape.
Can these boots be resoled?
Yes, thanks to the Goodyear Welt construction, these boots are designed to be resoled by a qualified cobbler, significantly extending their lifespan.
What is the primary difference between this model and the classic 875?
The 3380 model is inspired by the classic 875 but features a sleeker profile and a slightly thinner sole for added flexibility and comfort, making it a lighter option.
Are these boots waterproof?
These boots are made from full-grain leather and feature Goodyear Welt construction, offering some water resistance. However, they are not fully waterproof. Applying a leather protector spray can enhance water resistance.
What type of socks are best to wear with these boots?
Medium-weight wool or durable synthetic blend socks are recommended for comfort and to aid in the break-in process. Avoid very thin socks initially.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every 3-6 months, or whenever it appears dry. Over-conditioning can also be detrimental, so assess the leather's condition regularly.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel tight or uncomfortable on first wear.
New leather boots often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have followed the correct sizing recommendations. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period.
Leather appears dry or scuffed.
Apply a neutral leather boot cream or conditioner using a soft cloth. Gently buff the leather after application. For scuffs, a leather cleaner might be necessary before conditioning.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.
Ensure the Polyurethane Traction Tred outsole is clean and free from debris. While designed for traction, extremely wet or oily surfaces can reduce grip for any footwear. Avoid use in hazardous slip conditions.
Welt stitching appears loose.
Inspect the Goodyear welt stitching carefully. If minor fraying occurs, it typically does not affect structural integrity. For significant damage, consult a cobbler specializing in boot repair.
